1. Please help with the following question.
Given:
A Heat engine goes through a Carnot Cycle as the following states:
State 2 to 3: air compresses adiabatically (pressure increasing)
State 3 to 4: air expanded under isobaric process
State 4 to 1: air goes under adiabatic expansion process
State 1 to 2: air goes under an isobaric compression
Expression :
efficiency = 1-(v1/v4)^gamma(v4/v3)
Find:
1: Plot P-V and T-V diagram of the cycle
2: Prove that the efficiency of this cycle given by expression (1)
3: Determine the net work done by this cycle as function of pressure and volume.
Thank you
2. efficiency = 1-TL/TH
efficiency = 1-(v1/v4)^gamma(v4/v3)
3. I have done the graphs correctly, I am not expecting anyone to do it for me, just some guidance on the right direction to start.
